To upload photos directly from your computer they must be in the JPEG format. The forum doesn't like BMPs (Bimps). If the original photo is in some other format; Select it in your photo software and Save As JPEG or JPG.
The recommended size for photos is no larger than 640x480 pixels. There should be a resize button in your photo software.

If you are starting a topic then you will see Attach File just under the text box. If you are replying to a post then you have to click on Post Reply to see the Attach File.
When you click it a new window will open. Click Browse and navigate to your chosen file. Then click Upload

You can click the Preview button at the bottom of the reply screen to see if it looks ok. If it's fine, then click Submit.
